It was a good debut for Harry Potter, but Harry doesn't look like he will be able to over take Transformers by the end of the year. Bruno had one of the biggest percentage drops I have seen in quite awhile.

(500) Days of Summer was a great movie. I'm glad to see it is doing so well in its limited release. It's a fresh break from the typical summer blockbuster fare.

I am happy that G.I. Joe did so well in its opening weekend. I'm not so sure if it will have legs though. Its domestic take will probably not match its reputed cost of 175 million but internationally it will definitely overtake that mark. Plus, the merchandising will rake in the bucks. Legs or not, a G.I. Joe sequel is imminent.

Here's hoping. Nothing in GI Joe left me feeling as awkward as so many things in TF's did. It was just good fun that everyone seemed to really get into. I really hope they get to do another.

Paramount's goal for G.I. Joe was $300M worldwide. It might not reach it, but I don't think it will be too terribly off. Right now, they are at $200M. I think it will have great DVD/Blu-Ray sales, so it will help it turn a profit. Hopefully, they will make a sequel. Maybe, they'll just cut out some of the unnecessary CGI stuff and go with a tighter budget.
